CMN 170 Lecture Notes - Lecture 10: Mercedes-Benz W136, Icann, Positive Feedback
Document Summary
Positive feedback: more leads to more to more, runaway dynamic. Negative feedback: stabilizes the system"s dynamic, trying to keep it in the middle . Uncertainty trajectory (exponential technological progress: doubling logic, every 2-3 yrs, leading to massive progress, making as much progress as since the beginning, singularity algorithms making decisions. Unpredictability of side-effects (creative destruction: hard to consider all the effects and interdependencies. Uncertainty of trajectory confronted with short-term flexibility: long term vision and short term actions, allow the adjustment of goals, stay flexible to do work and have it evolve. All-pervasiveness- confronted w/ decentralized agenda: allowing a consultation to receive feedback, allow more sectors to have a hand in creating the plan, ict can change how policy is created and executed. Internationality of digital networks confronted with international coordination: governments coordinate- Ex. promote the interoperability of standards-based e-government systems in ensure option of interconnecting services within single jurisdiction (goal 38, elac2010: establish network to exchange education portal.
